  1. Hi Noel, I broke out some details in a new post here: http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/4921-Cobalt-Point-Motors-%28and-Cobalt-Digital%29?p=75316#post75316
  2. Breaking this out from Amiens Street, from Noel I'm still a fan, to start with Since installation back here: http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/4-Amiens-Street-Terminus?p=14759&viewfull=1#post14759 They've not given a moments trouble, bar some initial voltage issues which made them problematic to programme. Since then, DCC Concepts have 'updated' the motor, and branded it http://www.dccconcepts.com/catalogue/a/Point-Motors-Cobalt-iP-Digital The new version is self-centred and handles the voltage issues better. On the Peco point adaptations, yes, I use electrofrogs, which need a few 'tweaks'. Here is how I do mine: On the motors themselves, check the documentation (which is excellent) on the link above. It details how they wire up, how to control them, how to build a control panel with levels or buttons/leds and how to use them in an offset or in pairs for crossings. I fitted all mine using the available foam pads, not a bother in 3 years and counting...
  3. The station is a Metcalf station building, built from a kit I've had from yonks ago, and spruced up with some posters, and IE signage. I've also fitted interiors (plaster ceilings, interior lights, painted walls, etc, etc which will hopefully look nice with all the lights on! The platforms are Hornby plastic yokes wallpapered with building sheets... This terminus and quarry / cement terminus has been claimed by Son no.1 so we're straying a tad from prototype so he can have more fun with it Son no.2 is getting a mini whitehead whether he likes it or not
  4. Am still -slowly- working away in the background... Latest project underway is the little terminus at the Quarry... Just plonked for now, pending drilling for the lighting droppers, etc. eventually... will have a proper update!
